CULTURE

How do you show employees you appreciate them?

We’re a talent-first organization, which means we pay people their market value even though we’re an early stage company. We also offer our full trust as employers: employees can work wherever they do their best work, and have unlimited vacation provided they deliver on the results and commitments of their job. In terms of benefits, we offer full healthcare coverage, retirement contributions, and four months paid maternity/paternity leave.

How are you creating a workplace of diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging?

We're a mission driven company focused on improving equity for taxpayers across the country, which means our team needs to represent our tax base in order to truly accomplish our mission. We value diversity of race, gender, background and opinion, and are hiring by diverse locations as well, not limited to major coastal tech cities’ hiring pools.

Why should someone work at your company?

Tax is the social fabric of our democracy, which makes working with April a huge opportunity for folks who want to make an impact. Our aim is to improve financial literacy and equity by leveraging tech differentiation to make it possible. Our employees are building something revolutionary, which will truly make a difference.
